Ravi Nag, son of former head Siyaram Chaurasia, resident of Sheshpur local tehsil, hoisted the tricolor at the Everest Base Camp in Nepal. On October 28, Ravi Nag and Kapil Panwar, resident of Baghpat in the same state, started the journey from Kathmandu to Everest Base Camp. After a one and a half day journey by car, both of them reached Paiyan village. From where the walking track starts. Both of them completed this 100 km track in seven days, whereas usually people take 12 to 15 days to complete this track.

According to Ravi, we used to walk 15 to 20 km every day, since this track is considered one of the most difficult journeys and in a way it is considered as the Chardham of the journeys. The height of Everest Base Camp is 5364 meters, the height of Kala Patthar located here is 5500 meters from where Mount Everest is clearly visible. There is not much enthusiasm about this journey among Indians, one reason for this could also be the complexity and tiringness of this journey.

The roads of Nepal are still not that good due to which most of the tourists avoid going here. The number of foreign tourists here is in thousands. Most of them come by flight from Kathmandu to Lukla because the land route between them is very bad and the means of transport are also less. Both of them did this journey through Pankaj Mehta's company Tape Life.

According to Ravi, the purpose of our journey is to make the youth aware and excited about travelling. One can learn a lot from travelling. Along with this, personality also develops. There is also a mixing of languages ​​and cultures. According to Ravi and Kapil, it is a matter of pride for them to hoist the country's tricolor at that height of Nepal.
